Warrendale Dental reveals the secret behind dental implants!
When you have missing teeth, it could be the result of an accident, poor oral hygiene, illnesses, medication or age. Whatever the cause of your missing teeth, here at Warrendale Dental, we believe you don’t have to put up with anything less than a beautiful, natural-looking smile that functions as you would expect your teeth to. When you look at people with super smiles, you may not be aware that they have had any dental work done to enhance the appearance of their grins. Little do you realise that for missing teeth, dental implants Herefordshire could be the answer.
How do dental implants Herefordshire work?
Dental implants Herefordshire are a solution to fitting replacement teeth in a natural looking and functioning way. Replacement teeth can be either crowns for single tooth replacements, bridges for several teeth that need replacing, or dentures for a whole mouth. We place screws into your jawbone and these become firmly fixed in place, when the body’s tissues heal around them. We can then attach your replacement teeth to these screws, so they act like artificial roots for your replacement teeth. The result is teeth that don’t move no matter what you are eating or how much you talk! We will need two appointments to fit the dental implants; the first will be to place the screws and we will attach temporary replacement teeth to these, while the gums have time to fuse with the implants. You will then need to return for your permanent replacement teeth to be attached to the screws.
The joy of dental implants
There are many reasons to love dental implants. Firstly, nobody will realise that you don’t have a fully natural set of teeth. This is not just down to how great the replacement teeth will look, but also because they won’t loosen. What’s more, dental implants are easy to maintain. All you need to do is brush, floss and come and see us for your routine check-ups. Also, by replacing your missing teeth, you are protecting your remaining natural teeth, (if you have them), from being overly exposed to bacteria, and you’re protecting the gums as well! Result! You could also find that you look younger with dental implants, because when people have missing teeth, they can sometimes develop a shrunken face and this can make them appear older than they are. By giving the face its structure back with the replacement teeth, however, you could look more youthful – we think it’s a great bonus! Finally, dental implants do not require major surgery. You can have your implants fitted with local anaesthetic, so you don’t need to worry about the recovery time afterwards, or about feeling any pain during the treatment.
